------------------ ARTICLE START ------------------

Most artists do not make a painting and then decide to leave it stored in their back closet for the rest of their lives. These artists will make these paintings and want to display them, to hang them up where everyone can see them. If lucky, these artists might even try to sell those paintings to someone willing to pay for that work of art. The ultimate goal for an artist is to be able to work solely at painting, creating all day long and getting paid to do so. Therefore, it is often necessary for an artist to have a show to try and sell pieces of their work and these shows are traditionally events held in galleries.

These galleries can be great places for an artist to exhibit their work. Generally, most artists will have a show based along a certain theme and any collector could be able to find a show that is based around different types of celebrity art. Artists will often build their art around critiques of modern society, showing all of the good or bad parts about it, and celebrities will factor heavily into those critiques. Without too much effort, one should be able to find pieces of celebrity art at one of these art shows.

If that collector is looking to make some additions to their collection, they should look at the price tag associated with each of those paintings. Depending on how well known the artist is and how praised their works are, there will be vastly different amounts associated with these works of art. For up and coming artist making pieces of celebrity art, purchasing some of their paintings could be a very wise investment. These pieces have the potential to grow quite valuable as the artist continues to rise in their career and owning them could pay off.

Meeting at artist at one of these art shows could also open the possibility of having a piece done for a collector by commission. By directly approaching the artist and asking for a piece of work about a certain celebrity, a collector could find out the potential of having a custom piece made specifically for their collection. This helps the artist not only get paid for their work, but it adds a unique piece to your collection, potentially bringing the entire collection together into a work of beauty.

Celebrity art shows do not necessarily have to be solely featuring works about celebrities, though. Many celebrities like to experiment in different art forms and painting is one of those most popular forms of expression. A collector could find art shows featuring works of art by certain celebrities and by attending these shows, they could have the chance to purchase art for a private collection which was actually made by a celebrity. This is a different form of celebrity art but one that is still equally as valid as any other. Serious art collectors should try to have as many different types of valuable art as is possible in their collections and celebrities who produce works of autographed art are prime examples of that.
